Why do some people look beautiful effortlessly while others need to put in effort to be on a similar level?

[Anonymous]

I am not talking make up and apparel-though that definitely contributes- but I'm talking working out, diet, clear complexion, sleep, and so forth. I always hear that beauty sleep is called beauty sleep for a reason and that you are what you eat but I have cousins and great friends who eat like shit and go days sometimes with barely exercise, get any sleep regularly (with the aid of drugs and shit like Redbulls) that look amazing as hell -like a model. But I have other friends who if they were to get sloppy would look "okay" at best and in order to look above average, have to work out consistently, eat good, sleep good, etc.

OhoOh and some no matter how they try just never quite look "great" by society's standards

Age and genetics play a role. When I was younger I played soccer almost any and every day it was warm enough. Fast forward a few years and I tried my hand at weight lifting. I couldn't gain a pound of muscle until I started eating over ten-thousand calories a day. After a severe motorcycle wreck fifteen years ago I'm getting into soccer again and this winter I'll roll on the mats for jujitsu and spend time sparring. My abdomen isn't what it once was but I'll spend the time trying to help my metabolism crank back up.

Your friends that "look great" while they are young cannot be that way their entire lives. Work at being a great person who is normally a great person and take care of yourself physically while you eat healthy. My fiends brother died and he was an olympic wight-lifter who died when he was in his thirties, but weight lifting isn't the healthiest lifestyle either.

I'm sorry man I love weight lifting and being active too

@yourbabygirl921 - Thank you for the apologies but you didn't turn in front of me! Just pay attention though for motorcycles, they are tiny. Just think though, I was club racing when I blew the motor on my bike, it was a friends motorcycle I wrecked on.

Stay active and be as healthy as you want to be. The one person that will determine how happy you are is the one who you look at in the mirror.

[yourbabygirl921]

Oh driving motorcycle? Shesh that's so cool I wanna try it someday and thank you 🥰 I love staying fit and active and healthy and we can all fins happiness within 😊

@yourbabygirl921 - Motorcycles are freaking awesome!! Not only do they counter-steer but at just shy of 180mph you are going the length of a football field every second. On a track you can drag your knee on the ground a few hundred feet after you top your bike out speed wise. All the times I wrecked at the track, I walked over and stood the bike up and after starting it I rode it away. Plus you have to wear full leathers, gloves, boots and an approved helmet. The gear is designed to protect you anyway so I almost always wore my full set of gear on the road before I started racing. Racing was the best because there is nothing to hit and everything is going the same direction.

Never did I heard of a racer who frequently died on the track (well that was before the bikes got incredibly fast) and most racers died while training. Either way it has been quite a few years since someone died in MotoGP, mainly because they have airbags in their suits and new tracks are designed to cut down on wrecks. The crashes at times are scary as Hell though. There was a race last year with Viñales where his bike came up apart and nearly hit his at full speed. At the end of the day, these are the fastest men on earth, all while on the fastest prototype motorcycles ever created by man.

Wear your gear and keep it on the track and you will be ahead of most motorcyclists on the roads.

That seems so awesome! I've always wanted to try it.. but too bad there's no such thing in my country:(

[KneeDragger]

@yourbabygirl921 - Where are you from?

Dirt bikes can't go as fast and you don't drag your knee like on asphalt, but my good friend used to race dirt bikes before he rode on the street; the principles are the same. But wrecking on the dirt happens way more often.

[yourbabygirl921]

From Philippines and I would love to go car racing and motor racing too

[KneeDragger]

@yourbabygirl921 - Are you kind of close to Australia? I believe they are planning a race in India but I don't remember, sorry. Either way, the races in person are sweet!!

[yourbabygirl921]

Yes I'm close to Australia but life is not easy for now anyway thanks for writting to me

[KneeDragger]

@yourbabygirl921 - Just remember to follow your heart and remember that only you can make yourself happy. Live your life for GOD, He loves you no matter what happens, you just have to ask a Catholic priest who is ("in persona Christi" translated as "in place of Christ") for forgiveness.

"but I have cousins and great friends who eat like shit and go days sometimes with barely exercise, get any sleep regularly (with the aid of drugs and shit like Redbulls) that look amazing as hell -like a model." Well that'll wear off sooner or later.. They are probably really young too.. People who are born the way they are can get away with a lot of stuff when they are young.. Whereas other people have to work hard because they weren't born like that.. It's similar to Talent.. It's nothing to be jealous of.. Hardwork builds character.. 😎👉..

Interesting. Some people must be an anomaly of sorts. My grandmother is 80 and still functioning well (walking, cooking, cleaning, bathing, etc) and she never did change her bad habits. But I shouldn't rely on getting her genes lol cuz I have people in my family that are young that have serious health issues now. But you right, it's like most things-some things people are just more naturally gifted in and it sucks how we can only do so much though...

[JDavid25]

Of course yeah.. I think Jackie Chan was the same way drinking beers and eating burgers while still doing death defying stunts.. LOL.. 😂.. Who cares in the end though right? Good for them if one thing is easier for them in life.. 😎👉.. But with your grandmother that's a bit more uncommon..

Genetics i have 2 sisters and even tho we all have base similar genes we are all different still. I'm the type can eat whatever I want and stay slim and look good but I can't build muscle. Sis 1 is the type to stay slim with diet but can gain muscle easy whenever she wants. And sis 2 can't lose unwanted pounds with extreme dieting or exercise or anything so ots all about how the individual gnenes get stacked during composition of our base cell composition.

You know that shit catches up with people eventually. And I wouldn’t worry about the “aesthetics” portion but about their health. They are going to start looking like crap in their 30’s. You should still have fun but take care of yourself , drink tons of water , eat clean , don’t abuse caffeine and drink responsibly. Also invest in a good skincare routine and ice down under eye bags.

[kyleelyn199723]

Because you are looking from only the outside. Those people that look pretty and eat like crap are doing internal damage to their body, and i am willing to bet, once they get older they will look like crap.

[Xyglo27]

Genetics!

They have good genes they eat healthy & don't make dumb lifestyle choices.

[whatdoyouwantt]

It’s genes, some are lucky while others are less lucky. At the end of the day we are all beautiful. ❤️

[TurboKid]

Maybe our ideas of beauty, especially when it comes to women, require too little effort to achieve and reward genetics over hard work.

[RSav4013]

The simplest answer is genetics. Some people just get lucky with having a high metabolism and ideal bone structure. Luck of the draw I suppose.

[GirlyGal20]

genetics, and eating well/taking care of one's self. Never had a problem with acne.

[Anonymous]

It’s because of genes, some people are born beautiful-looking while some are born average looking but make themselves look attractive with the right grooming 🤷‍♀️

[kamalravi25]

This is what god wants us to learn.
Instead of fixing our physical appearance we should focus on fixing our spirit.

[byzafer]

Genetics
but most famous people are also rich so they can afford a lot of things to help with their physical appearance

[_Troian_]

Well.. some people are gifted, there's no scientific explanation for that.

[twis7]

I'd by effort you mean makeup, I avoid women who wear makeup... even if they dont need it.

[Asker]

no-in my first sentence I literally said I did not mean makeup. I am mostly thinking of guys actually but females too

[twis7]

yeah I'm an idiot. please disregard.

[LorraineGates]

Genetics and lifestyle choices. Improve the things you can control.

[JamieLoves]

Some weren’t born pretty and need paint and body work... accept it !

[Anonymous]

It’s unfair but that’s the way it is. Some people have the beauty genes

[Siren777]

The power of good genetics.

[DaisyM23]

Just how you look I guess...

[anon1903]

Heredity, fitness, class and maintenance.

[Lone_wolf122]

Genetics... They didn't make themselves like that

[Amoebaaa]

I agree with your statement.

[Aakash_Hangargi]

It's matter of luck that's it
